Commercial Air Conditioning Repair, Maintenance & Replacement

When cooling goes down in an occupied commercial building, the problem is measured in tenant complaints, lost production and overheated equipment rooms. Our commercial air conditioning service covers the direct-expansion systems most East Bay buildings rely on: packaged rooftop cooling, split systems, ductless and VRF, computer room units and the condensing units that serve them.

We carry the diagnostic tools and common parts to resolve most cooling calls on the first visit, and we are honest about when a repair no longer makes economic sense compared to replacement.

Scope of work

Air Conditioning: what we handle

Equipment

01
  • Packaged DX cooling in rooftop units and vertical self-contained units
  • Commercial split systems from 2 to 20 tons, single and multi-circuit
  • Ductless mini-split and multi-zone systems for offices, labs and IDF/MDF rooms
  • VRF/VRV systems with branch selectors and multiple indoor unit types
  • Computer room air conditioning (CRAC) and precision cooling units
  • Air-cooled condensing units paired with indoor air handlers

Repair & troubleshooting

02
  • No-cooling and low-cooling diagnostics with documented readings
  • Refrigerant leak detection using electronic and ultrasonic methods, then repair
  • Compressor, reversing valve, TXV and EEV replacement
  • Condenser and evaporator fan motor, capacitor and contactor replacement
  • Control board, sensor and communication fault repair on VRF systems
  • Frozen coil and airflow issues caused by filters, blowers or duct restrictions

Maintenance

03
  • Pre-season cooling inspections before summer demand
  • Condenser coil cleaning to restore capacity and lower amp draw
  • Evaporator coil and blower inspection for airflow and IAQ
  • Refrigerant charge verification against manufacturer data
  • Condensate management to prevent water damage over occupied space

Installation & replacement

04
  • Replacement of aged split systems and condensing units, including R-410A to next-generation refrigerant transitions
  • Supplemental cooling for server rooms, labs and hot spots
  • VRF and ductless systems for tenant improvements and additions

Diagnostics

Common failures and what they mean

Fault 01

System runs constantly but the space never reaches setpoint

Low charge, dirty coils, undersized equipment after a space change, or a failed compressor stage. We measure capacity rather than guess.

Fault 02

Water leaking from an indoor unit

Clogged condensate drains and failed pumps are the leading cause of ceiling damage in offices. Drain treatment is part of our maintenance.

Fault 03

Tripped breakers when the unit starts

Hard-starting compressors, grounded windings or undersized wiring. We check electrical before condemning the compressor.

Fault 04

VRF system faults with cryptic error codes

We diagnose communication, refrigerant and sensor faults on VRF systems and work from manufacturer service data.
